About Tom

I am an experienced teacher and specialist tutor living in London with a PhD in English Literature and Continental philosophy from the University of Glasgow. Informed by over a decade's experience in the secondary and undergraduate classroom, my tutoring practice stimulates student independence and confidence when encountering challenging texts.

About the lesson

I work by the hour with students studying KS3 Literacy, GCSE English Language and Literature, A Level Literature, and undergraduate English, Literary Theory and Philosophy. I also work with students confronting the challenges of 11+ and 13+ examinations and GCSE and ALevel students engaged in homeschooling.

I have tutored online and in person since 2012 in 11+ examinations, KS3 literacy, and GCSE/A Level examinations in English Language and English Literature across the full range of exam boards. From September 2017 to June 2024 I worked in London as a secondary teacher of English Literature and Language, RSE and Citizenship from KS3 to GCSE, with an 100% pass-rate at 7 (or A) and above.

Between 2011 and 2016 I worked as a teacher of undergraduate English Literature and Literary Theory at the University of Glasgow (2012-2016), teaching over 300 students overall across a wide range of undergraduate modules. This work included course design and delivery, marking, feedback and administration, and the development of bespoke lectures and workshops in poetry. More recently, I worked as an associate lecturer in Creative Writing and Literary Theory at the University of Essex (2017-18). In 2015 I was nominated for a University of Glasgow Student Representative Council Student Teaching Award in the category 'Best Postgraduate who Tutors'.

I deliver bespoke tutorials designed to foster enthusiasm and confidence, especially when encountering challenging texts. My tutorials are lively and collaborative, using Google docs to create vibrant shared documents full of live feedback. I tailor all of my seminars to the needs of individual students whether they're struggling to read poetry for the first time, facing difficulty preparing for their 11+ exams, or encountering problems in their undergraduate coursework.

I have a huge amount of experience in exam preparation across the full range of exam boards. I also offer structured tutorial series to help students become acquainted with the nuances of 11+ and 13+ examinations, including elite comprehension and creative writing coaching.

KS3, GCSE and A-level students will benefit from encountering in my classes approaches and methodologies used in the study of philosophy, literature and creative writing at undergraduate level.
